Chapter 1770: Chapter 842: God Slayer!
The Buddha and Chen Yuan fought to this point, deliberately using "Buddha Country in the Palm" at the most appropriate time to create the best opportunity for Huang Ji.
The best outcome would be to severely injure Chen Yuan in one strike, thus simplifying matters afterward.
At this moment, when the sense of compassion and the chanting of Buddha’s scriptures reached his ears, Chen Yuan was momentarily dazed, but it was only for an instant.
His Mental Realm was perfect, and his Dao Heart was resilient, backed by the Martial Divine Rules to protect him. He was able to immediately extricate himself in that moment of involvement, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Just as Chen Yuan escaped the allure of the Buddha’s sound, an invisible ripple passed by him, coupled with an ultimate burst of Rule Power that aimed directly at his head.
"Solidify!"
Without any hesitation, Chen Yuan instantly employed the void solidification divine skill, freezing time for a brief moment. It was precisely this fleeting moment.
Chen Yuan waved his hand, and the God-Slaying Spear broke through the so-called "Buddha Country in the Palm," creating a distance of ten thousand feet.
At the spot where he was just standing, an explosion sounded instantly, obliterating everything within a hundred-foot radius, with the terrifying murderous intent dispersing in all directions.
The Buddha set the stage proactively and so obviously; Chen Yuan knew from the start that it wasn’t so simple, that the other side surely had other tricks up their sleeve.
Even when the two Barbarian Gods from the Northern Barbarians appeared, he didn’t let his guard down. Standing in someone else’s shoes, if he were the Buddha, he would definitely have an even stronger backup plan.
During their confrontation, Chen Yuan was constantly on the defensive.
Sure enough, the moment the opponent tried to unsettle his spirit, the lethal move was deployed, which is why he reacted so quickly, not allowing the opponent to succeed.
"How is it possible!"
The Buddha’s pupils contracted, feeling a touch of disbelief.
He knew Chen Yuan was formidable.
Chen Yuan also demonstrated his own strengths.
But "Buddha Country in the Palm" was his strongest means; even a great Earth Immortal of the same level would have their spirit disturbed if caught off guard, and this was his goal all along.
Yet...
The unfolding events far exceeded his expectations.
Chen Yuan took only a fleeting moment to escape from the mental chaos induced by "Buddha Country in the Palm," and during that time, he could forcibly solidify the void within a hundred feet around him, something unimaginable.
The opponent was always on guard!
The Buddha’s expression darkened slightly, alarmed by the failure of his scheme.
However, Chen Yuan’s gaze didn’t fall on the Buddha but shifted to his former position, where, as the aftermath dissipated, a robust silhouette slowly appeared.
Long locks hung over the shoulders, standing eight feet tall, with deep-set eyes and an eagle-hooked nose, bearing a significant difference in appearance from the people of the Central Plains—distinctly Northern Barbarian in appearance.
Holding a heavy hammer, the aura emanating from his entire being was as imposing as the Buddha’s.
Earth Immortal!
Another Earth Immortal!
And from the Northern Barbarian Prairie.
This discovery instantly made Chen Yuan frown slightly. To his understanding, there were only three Barbarian Gods on the prairie, one of whom had fallen at the hands of Martial Emperor Lu Chengfeng.
Who could this be?
"Your strength is indeed extraordinary, to be able to avoid my full-force strike." Huang Ji stared at Chen Yuan, a touch of seriousness flashing in his eyes.
Such a good opportunity, such a dangerous situation, yet the man managed to evade it successfully. Indeed formidable, no wonder that bald monk treated him so cautiously; he did have some real skills.
After Huang Ji’s appearance, the three fell into a strange calm, with none making a move for the moment.
"This ruler... who are you?"
Chen Yuan gazed at the robust figure, asking in a deep voice, simultaneously and subconsciously, a hint of greenness flashed in his eyes.
"This ruler is Huang Ji!"
"Never heard of it." Chen Yuan shook his head, but the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
Conveniently, yet another person carrying Qi Fortune had arrived.
As expected, the further it goes, the more difficult it becomes to seize Qi Fortune, soaring exponentially.
However, for now, he could still manage.
Huang Ji snorted coldly and responded lightly:
"Later, you will remember it clearly."
"Benefactor Huang Ji, do not give this person a chance to recover, strike!" The Buddha’s thunderous voice boomed as the giant celestial palm descended again, illuminating the heavens with dazzling golden light, with the Five Elements Rules rotating.
"Let this ruler see how powerful the so-called Martial God truly is!" Huang Ji roared, the coppery Divine Hammer in his hand glowing, the rules surrounding him coalescing within.
He leaped through the void, reaching Chen Yuan in an instant.
The colossal Divine Hammer crashed down onto Chen Yuan.
"You will see."
The God-Slaying Spear spun, the spear thrust like a dragon, the Martial Divine Rules coalescing within, seemingly forming a straight line in the void, clashing directly with it.
The Divine Spear and the Heavy Hammer.
Their collision echoed with thunder within a thousand miles as if the world were collapsing, with endless after-effects sweeping in all directions, obliterating all emerging void turbulence.
Instantly annihilated.
Just in time, the Buddha’s giant palm also came crashing down.
Chen Yuan sensed the overwhelming pressure of the golden Divine Palm, immediately reacting by stepping back with his right leg, retracting the God-Slaying Spear, retreating ten thousand feet to evade the strike.
"Kill!"
He advanced without hesitation, continuously moving as if a meteor had fallen from the Nine Heavens, heading straight for Huang Ji, with rolling thunder reverberating, clearing a path through whatever was in his way.
Clang—
The earth shook again as the two Immortal Weapons clashed once more, evenly matched, yet only Huang Ji felt the pressure, for Chen Yuan was not engaged with just him alone.
